Yanukovych not to ask for military support

ROSTOV-ON-DON, February 28. /ITAR-TASS/. Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych said Friday at a news conference in the southern Russian city of Rostov-on-Don that he is for “united and undivided” Ukraine.

Yanukovych had to flee his official residence and leave Ukraine following riots in his country that resulted in parliament taking over and appointing an interim head of state.

He said he would not ask other countries for military support.

“I believe that any military operations in this situation are inadmissible. I am not going to ask for military support,” Yanukovych said.
